“Obie Review Obie Nwabuzor Pacific Playa Realty We met Obie years ago when she knocked on our door, sharing good news about a sale a few houses from ours which sold over asking price. Since we lived in the neighbourhood over a decade, having met many real estate agents asking for our business, Obie was special in that she shared the good news but did not ask for our business. She also exuded such a positive energy and optimism which was simply contagious and unforgettable. When my husband and I finally decided to sell our house, she was the top real estate agent—there was no question about it. We found that Obie knows the business and is an expert, but, moreover, knows the neighbourhood and is passionate about real estate. Despite the nerve-racking endeavour to sell a house, we loved working with her. At every step of the turn—and there were quite a few turns—she kept a cool head, making sure we would not loose hope. We sold at asking price which was not a given in this current market and that was solely on account of her amazing gift as a client advocate and as an excellent negotiator. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is extraordinary: dedicated, smart, quick-witted, and, above all, fair and kind. We love you, Obie!”
“Obie was fantastic to work with—professional, responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable throughout the process. She made what could have been a stressful experience feel seamless and always had my best interests in mind. I’m truly grateful for her guidance and highly recommend her!”
“I met Obie at a neighborhood event, and from the very beginning, her energy stood out. Not only did she know the neighborhood inside and out, but she also knew the people and truly understood what matters most to the community. Even in a challenging LA market, Obie gave us confidence and hope throughout the process. She was professional, trustworthy, and someone we knew we could rely on every step of the way. She walked through our condo and made thoughtful, budget-friendly suggestions that significantly improved its presentation without overspending. Selling a condo comes with a lot of legalities and unexpected hurdles, but Obie handled everything with determination and expertise. Before we knew it, she got the job done. Whenever we needed her, she was just a call or text away and always responded quickly to our questions and concerns. I couldn’t be more grateful for Obie and her team. She’s a true people person who genuinely cares about her clients, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home, she is a wonderful person to know and through this process I am happy to now call her a friend.”
“I utilized two prior realtors in an effort to sell a house in the South L.A area. Obie's approach was impressive. The second realtor I used brought limited crowds, talked a big game and focused the sale on investors when the market was not favoring this concentration of buyers. I noticed Obie's for sale signs all over South L.A, West L.A and decided to review her on Zillow. I was impressed. Her team at Pacific Playa Realty work as a well-oiled machine. They team to address every possible obstacle. The advice Obie gave me to improve my house to attract buyers I felt would enjoy the house (families not corporate) was reasonable. I've found Obie to be a strong lead. Open houses were focused with pre-approved buyers, and she understood immediately who was serious, and communicated herself professionally and supportively. Her approach helped me as the seller make time limited decisions smoothly. Obie understood that this was an emotional sell, and that unloading this home would free me and my family from years of obstacles. The empathy Obie and her team shared was amazing, and it motivated other future plans for my next chapter. In less than one month we had a first offer, and soon after a second offer. This led to a small bidding war. I signed up with her end of February and here I am end of April approaching closing on this house. Thank you Obie.”
“Working with Obie Nwabuzor to buy my new house has been a fantastic experience. This is my first time buying in LA and not only did she help me find the perfect home, she made the buying process so smooth, accessible, and clear. It can be a daunting task to complete the process but Obie and her partners are so organized and truly committed to ensuring you are equipped as you work through everything. She is encouraging and checks in with great call outs and reminders, and is a lovely person all around. Obie is PHENOMENAL and I can't wait to work with her again!”
“It was truly a pleasure working alongside Obie Nwabuzor on a recent transaction. While we did not represent the same client, I had the opportunity to experience her professionalism firsthand. She guided her client in submitting a strong, well-structured offer with highly competitive terms, which ultimately helped move the deal forward. Her communication throughout the process was consistent, clear, and thorough, something that makes all the difference in a smooth transaction. I especially appreciate her collaborative approach and commitment to ensuring a win-win outcome for both parties. I always value working with agents who bring a high level of integrity and teamwork to the table, and Obie certainly exemplifies that. I would welcome the opportunity to work together again in the future.”
“Since I have met Obie, she has been a one of a kind realtor! She is very supportive, reliable and extremely committed to her work. She helped me rent out my home in such a short time span and made the process extremely easy. I am very grateful to have had her by my side during this process! I strongly recommend her to any person in need of a realtor. She is the one!!”
“Recently, I represented the buyers of a single-family residence in View Park in which Obie was the listing agent. Although our paths crossed periodically at open houses, I never had the pleasure of working with her on a transaction. Obie was fully involved in the sale from start to closing. She ensured that we communicated regularly throughout the escrow process. When unforeseen obstacles arose, Obie always sought ways to resolve the issue amicably. In the future I look forward to working with her again.”
“Working with Obie to sell my mom’s house was truly a great experience from start to finish. This wasn’t just a typical transaction—it was a process that came with a lot of personal and emotional weight—but Obie handled it with the perfect balance of professionalism, patience, and care. From day one, she was organized, communicative, and clearly knowledgeable. She laid out a clear path forward, kept me informed at every step, and was always available to answer questions or talk things through. What I appreciated most was her ability to simplify what could have been an overwhelming process and make it feel manageable. Even though this wasn’t a traditional market sale, Obie navigated everything seamlessly and made sure nothing fell through the cracks. Her experience and steady approach really showed throughout. I also want to give a shoutout to her escrow team, who made the closing process incredibly smooth and efficient. That level of coordination and follow-through made a big difference. Above all, Obie operates with integrity and consistency—I always felt like she had my best interests in mind. I’d absolutely recommend Obie to anyone looking to buy or sell a home, especially if you want someone who is not only effective, but genuinely cares about the people she’s working with.”
“As a home inspector I’m always listening (eavesdropping) for clues to client concerns. So I get to hear the interactions between agents and buyers. Obie is one of those professionals that truly cares about her clients. She has the experience, the expertise and the “thing” that most others don’t have; she cares. Not just a transaction for her. She’s happy when her clients are happy.”
